What is MySpace role play?

Answer 1

Myspace roleplay is when people create profiles and edit their pictures of celebrities with photo editing programs such as Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, Photofiltre ect. Myspace roleplayers are usually compared to posers when they are not. They have clear disclaimers that explain that they are not affiliated with their 'face' which means, the Celebrity they use. Roleplay is split into verses. Such as Normal, Open, Hollywood, Horror, Wrestling, Anime, Disney, SPN ect. A lot of roleplayers, roleplay to improve their writing skills. Myspace roleplay also allows people to be creative and have a lot of fun.

Answer 2

Myspace Twilight rolplaying is just like myspace rolplaying, If you don't know what that is by now then i don't see the point in you asking the question. Myspce Twilight Roleplaying is basically like myspace roleplaying except you have to roleplay a person in twilight and para what is based on the story, The para doesn't have to be EXACTLY the same but just something like that mkay? KTHNSBYE ;]

Answer 3

Roleplaying is when you pretend to be someone else. Many websites, such as YouTube or MySpace have roleplayers. A very popular roleplay theme on YouTube is Twilight. You can pretend to be Renesmee and go to a Jacob roleplayer and say 'Hey, Jacob *Smiles sweetly* How are you?' or something around those lines.

The best way to describe Myspace Roleplaying is to say that it is a form of "interactive storytelling." One uses photos of celebrities and occassionally regular people, or even themselves, to portray an original character created by the player or a character from a movie, television series, book, comic book, manga novel, etc.

There are several ways of roleplaying to consider:

*ACTIONS:

Example: *sits on his lap* *slaps you in the face*

Explanation: The key to roleplaying in "actions" in order to be grammatically correct is to use the form of a present tense sentence in third person. So in reality, it would be She *sits on his lap* without the first pronoun as opposed to I *sits on his lap*, which would be incorrect. Unfortunately, this type of roleplaying requires very little experience in writing and is mainly used for relations out of character.

It is also considered "noob" by some people, regardless of the fact that most roleplayers do it at least out of character.

*PARA

Example: A paragraph of third person or first person fictional writing.

Explanation: This type of writing is basically what you'll find in a book. It requires grammar to do, and for it to be fun, skill. There are several sub-categories of para that include but are not limited to Multi-para and Novella. Multi-para is simply more than one paragraph, ranging from two to about ten, and requires a reply and/or starter to be sent in parts, or several comments. Novella, which might be considered multi-para by some as there is a gray area between one ends and the other starts, is typically longer. It ranges from about ten paragraphs and up, resulting in several parts. Some people roleplay in novella format by sending amounts that might equal an entire chapter of a book.

*All can be done through comments, messages and/or blogs.

TYPES OF ROLEPLAYERS:

*Noobs: Noobs are generally people who have just started roleplaying or appear to have just started, thus having gained no experience yet. They often roleplay several people on one account and include the term "S&L" or "TAKEN" in their display name to display their status, such as "Amy *S&L/ Johnny *TAKEN*/ Juney *PROTECTED*" and sometimes claim other roleplayers they find as family members. Most roleplay through actions, but few do para roleplay.

*Scenesters: There are scene roleplayers, who use photos of scene kids, emo people and Disney stars or other exceptionally famous people in pop culture, use default profiles with brightly colored backgrounds, often edit their photos excessively in photoshop and roleplay through actions. With a great deal of them, it is a competition to see who can get the most friends and seem the most "cool." A popular thing for them to do is include trademark, copyright and reserved rights symbols in their often confusing display names. They also pride themselves on being random and original, an oxymoron if you will. Few para roleplay.

*Semi-noob to Borderline Elite: These types of roleplayers are generally the best to come across. They have the knowledge and talent that noobs and scenesters lack to genuinely roleplay, but lack the haughtiness and overconfidence "elite" roleplay possess that keeps the elite from actually roleplaying, and they often don't have the means or the editing skills it takes to create an elite profile. [See below] These also are prone to include symbols in their display names and use default profiles depending on the type. They're writing ranges from para to novella.

*Elite: Elite roleplayers pride themselves on exceptional graphics and "neat" profiles created through MyGen.co.uk and several codes to basically strip the Myspace profile of its "Myspace-ness." They generally include stats on their profiles, and written bio, screen captures edited to depict the life or a scene from the life of their character, and connection boxes to show who their characters are connected to. One thing about elite roleplayers that differentiates them drastically from the Scenesters and noobs is that a great deal of them claim to have "exclusive" or "limited" friends lists, either to retain the image that their character is in high demand, or to prevent thievery and in those cases often resorting to blacklisting. The elite include either the first, middle, last or nickname of their character in the display name and nothing else but a period. They pride themselves on being wholly original and exclusive and often post rant bulletins about missing the "good 'ol days" of roleplaying when they were semi-noob and borderline elite, when they feel roleplaying was at its best.
